Highlights

Cultural Immersion
Dive deep into Indigenous culture at Te Po Māori Experience at Te Puia, where Māori culture is revealed through art, tradition and cuisine.
Make Travel Matter
Your visit to a kiwi hatchery helps ensure the future of this adorable (yet endangered) bird for future generations of visitors.
Local Connection
Australia dazzles, or exploring remote reaches of the Northern Territory under a blaze of stars, or colourful alleys in Melbourne hand-in-hand with an art aficionado.
World Class Nature
Nature humbles at Milford Sound, where plunging cliffs and raging waterfalls meet inky dark water. On your cruise you’ll begin to understand why dolphins and sea lions love living here.

Optional activities should be scheduled in advance and not as the tour progresses. That way we can know whether or not we can get the activity. If not, it can be scheduled online. I had no access to these activities from Tour Radars website and didn’t know they existed. Luckily I scheduled on my own and got to see what I wanted. Others did not.

This was my first trip on a guided tour. Was feeling nervous - but it ended up being a great experience. Everything went smoothly. The communication from Tour Radar was good.They responded promptly to my queries. It was well organized. The itinerary gave an opportunity to see and have a range of experiences, The tour guide Joe from Down Under Tours (AAT) was fantastic. He really enjoyed his job and was passionate about sharing the places we visited. He was very knowledgeable too. Joe was very friendly and respectful to all of us on the tour.
